Android Oreo was just announced and our device is not even in the expected updates list. How can Lenovo do this?. Old phones like k3,k4,it and vibe x2 are expected for an update. How is this fair? Can't we do anything to request an update for our phone?

When I go to the official Lenovo page (to the upgrade matrix) it says status completed on all these phones. None is getting Oreo.
No need of Oreo update from Lenovo. One Dev has to download the Oreo aosp repo and build it. If device tree, vendor tree and kernel source is present we can compile any ROM. Bugs may be there but the Dev has to fix.

Bruuuhh. We haven't gotten a stable Leanoge OS 14 ROM and u say we'll get an Oreo one. That'll take all least 3-4 years. And even if we get an Oreo ROM within 2 yrs it's not gonna be bugless. Stock ROM ensures no bugs with VoLTE support.

Do you really think building a bugless custom ROM is a first time success thing!
If a proper set of device tree and vendor blobs are available, may be. But our device had a crappy device tree released with is why Mike had to compile it from scratch.

Predictable. BTW, Lenovo should provide regular security and bug fixing patchs for at least a year. I wish only that Mike could make a near perfect rom (with hotspot and led working) so we can migrate from stock to Oreo.

Nothing in that article states we will get Oreo, it's all ifs buts and maybes.
No biggie
I'm not sweating it - can't see any improvements on O to get excited about and most updates usually break something in my experience. P2 is a great phone and should last another year
where did that screen grab of lenovo oreo updates come from? was it leaked?
the official list doesnt show any oreo upgrades confirmed yet:
https://t.co/ytsMrKFFye
when i tweeted lenovo they said :
Thanks for writing in. Google just recently released the Oreo update. We don't have any official list yet
Guys in lenovo update matrix.... No phone getting 3 updates in a row??
Which means no oreo update for lenovo P2 But there is a hope of getting android oreo update because i think lenovo P2 is the only phone getting 1 marshmallow update( minor bug fix update security patch) and 2 nougat updates( firmware and major bug fix security patch update) which lenovo gives due to many of people saying there are bug in the nougat update like lip sync youtube issue and lenovo gives the update
Which means lenovo developers team may be provide the oreo update?
And one thing no oreo update in lenovo update Matrix doesn't mean that it not going to provide the Oreo update and what it means that there are no plans for now!!!

Or can Honor 4c flash any android 7.0 rom?
Dude are you kidding?
Honor has abandoned our device long ago many of the users are even stuck with Kitkat version.(As the MM update is not available through OTA in some regions but manual update possible)
Even similar device P8 lite with 2 years updates guaranteed wont get Nougat official update.
Dont keep hope for Official Nougat update just move on.
If you really wish to have Nougat builds on your device try customs Roms from P8 Lite thread.
PS: Don't bother the devs as the device is not officially supported by them , you can use most of the features but few bugs are present for Nougat builds but MM builds works fine .

Same chipset doesnt mean we can install ROMs vice versa .
There are also some other factors will are required in order to do so.
I have no idea regarding honor 8 and mate 8

Mist , we can port roms from same chipset . If all specs are similar we can flash its roms on one anothers
Yes if specs are same we can but if they arent you have to make some complex ports thats what I meant.
Well , complex part mean u have to edit full framework. Editing many files like even settings dialer system ui . Omg thats harder than building a rom from source
Yes that's what I mean even you do so there won't be guaranteed results.
Yes . There will a list of bugs which cant be fixed.this is why i always use sources to build.
But we have not got complete sources for this device so that option is out of question.
Yeah .. we can even port for a fully working wrong but that will be pretty hard.
Devs like surdu,Xepeleato,olddroid are finding it difficult for this device without sources so its out of my capability.So no hope for me.
Its hard to build a rom without kernel sources. But a rom can be build using prebuild kernel if u may not know.
Before honor released kernel sources , surdu build cm14.1 using stock kernel.

Can anyone tell that will we get official lineage os build for honor 8?
It doesn't matter if official or not, official is when the ROM is fully stable and there are weeklies on the lineage server.
Even if it didn't become official, if it's stable is like official.
I don't think soo
It may get official
We have no major bugs we are likely to get offical .

Okay...
There was an update for the Nubia M2 that was released on 10 July 2017 and the Factory Stock Firmware package is named "NX551J_Z69_EN_TSXPR17D11L110".
With that stated...
Go to the following link:
http://www.nubia.com/in/support.php?a=download
Then scroll down and select "ROMs" that's to the right of the words "Documents".
Within the list below, select the following:
"NX551J_Z69_EN_TSXPR17D11L110 - 1.79G - 2017/07/10 - M2"
Read the popup information first. It reflects all kinds of information that you should know about that Firmware.
At the bottom of the popup, select the "Download" option and the Firmware will download.
I do not have this device and, though this is the latest firmware for the M2, I'm not completely sure if this firmware update is for the Android 7.0 Nougat but, a few other sites do reflect that this device did just recently receive a Nougat update.
As i had stated, i don't have this device, I can't really support you after you download it but, they do have support options if you require further assistance.
I wish you the best of luck!

Nope, we're stuck at 6.0.1.
The only flashable rom I was able to read about is LineageOS 15, but I'm not sure those were not just spam.

Like many others I've bought a rather cheap M2 from Geekbuying a while ago and been wondering about (OTA) update, like Nougat. Apparently the Chinese ROM is out now http://ui.nubia.cn/rom/detail/36
but there is no way of downloading it seems, or at least difficult. Not sure if it would even work putting that ROM on the seemingly global version (India?) Does anyone have an idea and would English even be correctly supported? Would that ROM even be functioning on the global version?
I've found a ported rom for nubia m2.. It's optimized for my region because are ported from gizchina.it dev.. So I can't say if are available also other lenguages
Here is a new version ROM.

So I just read some stuff about Treble and how it could speed up ROM development on devices that support it. Can anyone here who knows more about the subject comment on getting support to the Honor 8?

If I got it right, it needs Android Oreo official support.
Yep, Treble support depends on manufacturer. However, we first need Oreo update in order to check if Treble is supported on H8. And yes, custom ROM development will speed up. There have been pretty stable and almost bugless ROMs for Huawei devices (with no 60 fps bug, he composition, full camera support) which have Treble Support with the latest Oreo update.

I hope it gets updated :crying: if not honor can kma.
Could I use the beta version? I don't think they will release oreo for honor 8. What about changing from L09 to AL00? Then I will need only TWRP with Oreo support in order to flash Treble Roms. I hope that only emui is unstable on this device. Even if the beta is unstable, could the vendor part be stable?
I think that the beta firmware for Honor 8 does support treble.
Does anyone know if Honor 8 will get Android Pie?
I'm also wondering about Android 8.1, will it be available for Honor 8 (frd-l09 especially)
I recently had my phone replaced but this time it refused to download the android 8.0 update both in OTA and hisuite, even after i downloaded and flashed B521 it refused to update to B562.
By refused i mean telling me it's already up to date, both OTA and hisuite.
Is it possible to force it or should I give up on OTA's and hisuite updates
Hello, first of all, I wanna say that we already have fully working and stable Pie.
There is no need getting 8.1 because there is already pie from Open Kirin. I am pretty sure we will get working Android Q this year too and because of treble, we will probably get Android 11 too.
